Answer: 1045 cm of red ribbon and 1045 cm of yellow ribbon
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let R represent the amount red ribbon and Y represent the amouont of yellow ribbon.
- bought the same lengths of red and yellow: R = Y
- after used 286 of red, yellow is 5 times the remaining red; 5(R - 836) = Y
Use substitution method to solve:
5(R - 836) = R
5R - 4180 = R <em>distributed 5 on the left side</em>
4R - 4180 = 0 <em>subtracted R from both sides</em>
4R = 4180 <em>added 4180 to both sides</em>
R = 1045 <em>divided both sides by 4</em>
Answer:
Let the amounts be 2x and 3x.
Then 2x+3x=60
So, 5x=60
So, x=60/5=12
So, amounts are
2x=2*12=24
And 3x=3*12=36
Hope this helps you!
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps! Because when you would fill in the variables 0=0 which which make the expression too that they’d equal the same.
A,C, and D! x factors should always have a number next to them to show through tape diagrams , those without them are automatically eliminated , the rest have number answers and are correct
